Mark the date: Don Balon are reporting that Los Ladrones are prepared to pay €200m for Harry Kane. I expect the Guardia Civil have been dispatched to crack a few pensioners around the head in N17...
The idea that Harry Kane will be sold before we move to the new ground is a joke. RM literally could not afford to buy him before then. After the first season in the new ground it may well happen but not before. Being a sports journalist would be a great job for me... Sturridge is going to sign for spurs to replace Kane who is going to united.... there you go...piece of cake...cheque please
I don't know why anyone wastes any emotional energy over these things. 1% of the transfer rumours actually happen. Unless Arsenal are selling, the chances of a top PL player moving to another PL club these days are nil. And even Arsenal held on to Sanchez.
Not wasting emotional energy in the rumours...just bitterly jealous that I can't get a good wage for writing bollocks rather than a lesser wage for dodging chairs and being hit with piss soaked socks
As things stand, every single website is going to be linking us with Ross Barkley, Ryan Sessegnon and Andre Gomes for January (and plenty already have in the past couple of weeks) - no doubt with a few random French or German teenagers sprinkled in, and no doubt Kovacic and Brozovic will be thrown in too. I'd suggest using these as the rules for a NewsNow drinking game, but the forum would probably look like Jonestown by the end of the first day...
Restrictive Chinese Government Could Pull Plug on AC Milan Owner's Investment in the Club The owner of AC MIlan Yonghong Li could see his investment in the club recalled by the Chinese government as part of their crackdown on foreign expenditures. The businessman purchased the club along with Sino-Europe Sports earlier this year, but his partners backed out and Mr. Li completed the €740m purchase thanks to a loan from U.S. hedge fund Elliott Management. There will be a congress on October 18 where the Communist Party will announce new restrictions on foreign investments. As reported by Libero, via Football Italia, the Rossoneri could find themselves in a spot of bother, with €200m in danger of being recalled. Milan need to pay back Elliott’s €253m by next October and if it isn't paid, then all of part of club is in danger of being transferred to the hedge fund. ...all of which means that every blogger under The Sun will be linking us with Suso in January, just like they were all summer.
I want to see you at Jose/Pep/Conte/Wenger/Klopp press conferences throwing a pee sock at them when they get stupid to your reasonable questions. < P(ee)litzer prize >
Do we always have to have a few of these rumoured moves that never happen on the go? Some of them seem to outlast managers, DOFs and entire squads.
Quick(ish) summary of the names doing the rounds Obligatory Turk Cenk Tosun's being linked with us...as well as Newcastle and Palace, once again indicating that we're the only English club in the Champions league the Turkish press know Complete rando Atlanta's Venezuelan striker Josef Martinez, who has said he hopes to join us - in other words Anton Walkes must have had a word with him
It's obviously the time of the month at the Daily Record, as they're linking us with Kieran Tierney again...
Somebody should probably wake up Cove, as we're linked with Ajax pair Donny van de Beek and Justin Kluivert.
Florentino Perez is personally tapping up Harry Kane. We should be honoured. What's helpful is that he has put a £225m price tag on him, which may just silence the 'Kane to United for £90m crap we heard in the summer'. What's less impressive are his claims that he and Levy are still 'great friends'. I sincerely hope not.
He claims that "signing Harry Kane has not passed through my head" - although the real question is why a round from a bolt-action rifle hasn't...
